Côte Dorchester

Very good food, competitively priced and an easy location for parking. Family friendly. A really good evening, we will definitely be coming again, thank you!

Been for breakfast before which was great but went for dinner this time. Really delicious food and nice atmosphere. Perfect choice for my stepdads birthday meal, service was excellent too. Would definitely visit again.

Very good service. Excellent food. Decent ambience. Would prefer it if the service charge was reduced a little and you could order pints and not smaller bottled beer!

excellent, clean, tidy well kept restaurant. friendly helpful staff on arrival, waitress to our table was exceptional and nothing seemed to be too much trouble for her. excellent food and wine. overall very pleased with the experience.

The food was nice bit the service was a bit lacking. There were 4 of us on a small round table and very little space. Bottles and sauces were not cleared very quickly and cluttered up the table. Two water bottles on a small table is a bit unnecessarily but they only hold enough for two glasses! We had to ask for the fourth starter to be brought out and then when the bill came they had already added a service charge (my pet hate).

there were no problems and we enjoyed our meal. the waitress was very nice and efficient. we look forward to making another visit shortly. good location and well presented venue

Busy with a good atmosphere for a Tuesday. Food was very good especially the belly pork. Service was also good. We will return, though I dislike the mandatory adding of 12.5% service charge, they are not the only ones to do this but I believe it should be totally discretionary.

Our table was ready when we arrived. Even though they were extremely busy, service throughout the meal was quick, servers were polite, cheerful and smartly dressed. We had a wide variety of dishes from all parts of the menu and all of them were extremely tasty, well prepared, cooked and presented. A pleasure to eat there

The usual good welcome, and good choice of dishes and very good quality of food and wine; nice situation in new-look Brewery Square in Dotchester

good service nice staff lovely food and good value for money we took our granddaughter and as she is vegetarian there was enough choices for her

Great service and good food in a real open comfortable atmosphere and would suit all occasions. Bordering between Bistro and Gastro of excellence, but definitely value for money and good choice of food.

The staff were as welcoming and efficient as usual. Don't know if there was a different chef: the chicken breast was slightly tough (?overcooked?), and the provencale sauce a bit watery.

I haven't been for a while and it still maintains its high standard of excellent service and excellent food. As always a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Great value, really tasty meal, and pleasant friendly service. The 3 courses for £12.95 meal before 7pm is exceptional - and as it was my birthday, we had free Kir Royales too.

Starters lovely, my main bland. Waiter dropped my husbands on the table and didn't offer any more. We had a bowl of salad and it was just lettuce leafs.

Was told could not mix special menu with a la carte. Have done so in other Cote branches. Sirloin steak asked to be well done, arrived medium. Due to personal circumstances could not complain. Also very noisy due to poor acoustics.

the food, service and staff were first class; probably the best we have experienced at Cote. we will most definitely be returning again very soon.

Excellent evening. Food all very good as usual and staff really friendly and helpful. It was very busy but service still efficient and all with a smile

We chose from the June specials menu and the food was excellent, the friendly staff provided very good service. I can recommend the house white too.

Attentive staff , always found the food flavoursome and well cooked. Once we weren't satisfied with a dish and it was changed without any hassle.

Food was good although having to pay extra for veg and garlic butter on an £18 steak then adding 25% charge onto the bill I feel leaves a bitter taste and i can go for a better steak with all sides for a lot less and I can see trade dwindling away unfortunately

It is very good authentic food which is beautifully cooked. The service is very friendly. We try to go regularly, so we can highly recommend Dorchester Cote!

The restaurant is always a nice place to be ... A warm welcome , friendly staff and good food ... value for money ... varied menu ... perfect !

Excellent starters (crab/avocado and pear/ goats cheese salad) and decent steak and chips from the set menu. Nice French cider and a decent house wine. Very good service.

A scrumdiddlyumptious breakfast and attentive staff in a perfect spot for some people watching. The perfect way to kick-off a Friday. Never disappointing, always recommended.

As always the service was very efficient and with a smile, and the food was up to its usual high standard with a great choice on the menu.

Service is always excellent at this reastaurant and we love the ambience but just some finer details we're missing. We now have to pay extra for the potatoes with our main meals, portion sizes were smaller and no garnish with the starters. We still would recommend this restaurant and we will be returning.

Good food good environment, staff helpful and polite but serious delays in getting served between courses not sure why as the restaurant was not busy

Waitress was very stand offish and service was slow considering only half the tables were full. Food however was very tasty & also reasonable .

The early evening menu was delicious:- Langustine tails, Seafood linguine, Creme caramel and for my husband Steak frites and crumble au peche!! Excellent service as always.

Excellent service. Lovely food. We really enjoyed our celebration and thank you for the complimentary glasses of Kir when we arrived. A good venue for our family.

Excellent meal in relaxing setting. Al fresco by fountains on hot evening ! Sea Bass Fillet and Steak Frites main courses were well served and appetising.

Waiting staff not up to usual standard. Waited a long time to be offered aperitif before ordering food. Waiting staff not attentive. Plates only cleared as next course arrived. One diner at our table expected to hand plates to waitress! Starters were excellent as was the wine.. Waiting staff never enquired how meal was. Steak was chewy even though cooked rare. We are regular diners at this restaurant and others in the chain and this was below standard we have previously received.

Cannot fault Cote Brasserie Dorchester. Not a bad word to say. Staff, food and atmosphere are always spot on! The restaurant is clean, fresh food and great value for money!

Booked a table for my finance and I here and we were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food. It wasn't like any of its neighbouring chain restaurants in the complex where it's located. I had the charcuterie board as my starter which was extremely tasty , my fiance had asparagus with hollanaise sauce and the asparagus was cooked perfectly. For mains I had the duck breast in a cherry sauce which was beautifully tasty and succulent and my fiance had the pork belly which was divine. Desserts we had chocolate mousse and creme brulee and they were the perfect end to our meal. We will definitely be back

Food was well cooked. The service was excellent and the help given by the assistant manager and other staff was more than would normally be expected. Yet again an excellent visit.

Fantastic food. Great atmosphere. Nice, friendly staff. The creme caramel is to die for!! I would highly recommend. It's the best Cote I have been to!

Very disappointing meal tonight, poor, slow service and overlooked food. Not the usual standards we have come to expect from cote. Not busy either so no excuse.

Excellent meal with good service. Duck was particularly good and chocolate moose superb. Was very busy so service only rated good as had to ask for cutlery and remind waiter about olives we ordered.

Excellent service provided through out. Making sure everything ok without the feeling if be hassled. Affordable for all wallets yet amazing food. Will continue to dine here.

Excellent Cote Brasserie - been to a few of these and we're never disappointed. Lovely Steak and Frites and Chicken with creamy potatoes. Always great service too!

Lovely food and very pleasant staff. Comfortable seating in a restaurant with a good ambience and a nice outlook. I would recommend this restaurant for good quality food at a reasonable price.

Pleasant setting, super service. Reasonable value. Good menu and child friendly. On arrival good reception. Clean and ready for service! Lots of competition in surrounding area that helps to improve service.

Good food, good service and nice atmosphere. Couldn't fault it. My only issue is the 12% service charge but they don't quibble when you change it.

As always, in Dorchester, quick, friendly service,food good and wines drinkable. It is a light , clean and pleasantly decorated restaurant, with a good outside terrace, near to the station and town centre.

This was our first visit to Côte Brasserie in Dorchester but it certainly won't be our last. The menu was extensive but not overwhelming; the service was attentive and friendly and the food was delicious. This, together with a vibrant buzz in the restaurant made for a really lovely evening. Would thoroughly recommmend it.

The food great but it the extra change at the end on top of the bill but you do not get ask if you what to pay it they just take it

Efficient and pleasant service. The usual good quality food. Value for money at reasonable prices. Pleasant surroundings. Acoustics well thought out - restaurant busy but could hear what companions were saying

Good Service , Good Food and a relaxing atmosphere! We visited for our anniversary and had a very enjoyable evening. I'm sure we will visit again soon!

Good atmosphere, excellent staff who worked really hard as the restaurant was bursting with customers. Food good and as regular customers is always of consistent standard. Creme brûlée excellent, no,superb.
